Championship Saturn II Billiard Cloth Pool Table Felt - 8-ft - Green
Overview Championship Saturn II Billiard Cloth — 8-ft Green 75% wool / 25% nylon, Teflon-treated, pre-cut for 8-ft tables. Championship Saturn II is a commercial-grade billiard cloth blended from 75% wool and 25% nylon with a tight weave and Teflon surface treatment. The Teflon treatment provides outstanding soil and stain repellency — chalk dust, ball debris, and drink splashes release from the surface rather than absorbing into the fiber. This is the same cloth used in commercial pool rooms and bars worldwide. Available in classic billiard green for 8-ft tables. Manufactured in Mexico. Set includes 6 pre-cut rail cloths, 1 bed cloth, 1 table spot, and 2 pieces of color-matched chalk. All pieces are pre-cut and marked for correct installation. Professional installation is recommended. Ships small parcel at 4–5 lb. No warranty. Construction 75% wool / 25% nylon blend, Teflon-treated, tight weave, pre-cut set. 0175% Wool / 25% Nylon Blend Wool provides the smooth, fast surface quality that delivers consistent ball speed and roll. Nylon adds durability and resistance to pilling that pure wool cloths develop under sustained commercial-level play. The 75/25 blend is the industry standard ratio for this performance tier — more wool would be faster but less durable; more nylon would be more durable but slower and less consistent. 02Teflon Surface Treatment Teflon treatment is applied to the fiber surface after weaving. The Teflon barrier causes liquid to bead rather than wick into the fiber, and prevents chalk dust from bonding to the weave. Both effects mean the cloth stays cleaner between cleanings and requires less maintenance to maintain consistent ball performance. 03Tight Weave Construction Tight weave produces a flatter, more consistent playing surface than loose-weave cloth. At the microscopic level, tight weave reduces the surface variation that causes balls to deviate slightly from their predicted path — relevant to players who have developed shot accuracy on good-quality cloth and notice inconsistency immediately when playing on worn or low-quality surfaces. 04Pre-Cut Rail and Bed Cloth Six rail cloths and one bed cloth are pre-cut to 8-ft table dimensions and marked for correct installation alignment. Pre-cut cloths eliminate the measurement and cutting steps that account for most DIY installation errors — wrong-sized cuts and skewed rail cloth alignment are the most common reasons felt replacements need to be redone. 05Green Color Classic billiard green felt — one of five available colors for the 8-ft Saturn II series. Green felt completely changes the visual identity of the table. Color-matched chalk is included so players are not forced to use a contrasting chalk color that shows visibly on the new cloth. 06Professional Installation Recommended Felt installation requires stretching the cloth evenly across the slate or engineered wood surface, stapling or gluing the edges correctly, and trimming flush at pocket openings. Professional table technicians have the tools (staple gun, stretcher, iron) and practice to achieve the correct tension in 45–90 minutes. DIY installation is possible but mistakes are difficult to correct without restarting. Buyer's Guide When to replace pool table felt and why Saturn II is the right replacement cloth. Pool table felt should be replaced when it shows any of these conditions: visible pile wear in the high-traffic areas (break zone, cue ball landing zone), ball roll inconsistency that cannot be corrected by brushing, visible staining that affects ball trajectory at contact points, or surface thinning where the weave structure is visible under the pile. On a table used 3–5 times per week, felt typically needs replacement every 3–5 years under residential use conditions. Championship Saturn II is the appropriate replacement specification for any Hathaway pool table. The original factory felt on Hathaway's mid-range and premium tables is a blended wool/polyester mix — Saturn II is a step up to the commercial-standard wool/nylon blend with Teflon treatment. If the goal is to restore the table to original playing condition, the blended polyester felt in matching color that was supplied with the table is the baseline. If the goal is to upgrade playing performance, Saturn II delivers the wool-blend surface that commercial table operators use. Available in 5 colors for 8-ft tables; see the matching BG263 series for all color options. Specifications Complete specifications.

What size table does this fit? 8-ft pool tables. For 7-ft tables, see the BG253 series. What is Teflon treatment on billiard cloth? A surface barrier applied to the fiber that causes liquid to bead and prevents chalk dust from bonding to the weave — the cloth stays cleaner and requires less maintenance to maintain consistent ball performance. Is professional installation required? Professional installation is strongly recommended. Incorrect tension during installation produces roll inconsistencies that cannot be corrected without redoing the installation. What is included in the set? 6 pre-cut rail cloths, 1 bed cloth, 1 table spot, and 2 pieces of color-matched cue chalk. Is a warranty included? No warranty is included.
